Product description
Late fruiting variety of blueberry. Strongly growing shrub with a spreading habit, reaches about 2 m in height. Medium-sized fruits, light blue in color, are sweet and healthy, contain a lot of anthocyanins that have an antioxidant effect. They ripen at the turn of August and September.
Blueberries are easy to grow shrubs. They are characterized by very good frost resistance. In order for them to grow well and bear fruit abundantly, they must be planted in sunny positions and in light, humus soils with a pH in the range of 3.5-4.5. It is recommended to buy peat dedicated to blueberries with an acidic reaction or to properly acidify the substrate with preparations containing sulfur compounds. Pruning should only be done every few years to rejuvenate the plant by removing old shoots.

Sadzonki są ładne, ale pakowanie już nie. Wyjęcie ich z pudła powoduje połamanie wielu gałązek. Ustawienie doniczek jedna na drugiej (doniczek nie roślin) powoduje zgniatanie roślin w czasie transportu.
